Analysis of the characteristics and translation skills of business English contracts

Abstract

As the second largest economy in the world, international commerce is important in the national economy, and the translation of business contracts is the cornerstone of trade cooperation. Business contract is a legally binding agreement, which is used to stipulate the rights and obligations of the parties, and is the basis for preventing and resolving disputes. Business English contracts have distinctive stylistic and linguistic characteristics, and when translating, relevant translation skills can be flexibly used according to the context, such as omission, negation, division, conversion, etc., so as to improve the quality of translation and avoid the loss of the interests of both sides of the trade due to translation errors.
